New to forum and Rolex

I’m new to the forum and yesterday I purchased my first Rolex after slowly saving for the last year: a Deepsea Black. My previous watches have included 3 Omega’s (1 left), and 2 Panerai’s (still own both).
The Panerai I wear most is the Titanium PAM 305 (47mm), although I also love my SS 312.

I’ll admit, I love the look and feel of the Rolex. It’s truly amazing even if it feels small compared to my 305.

Anyway, I’m now perusing the site and looking into a potential new watch for my wife who owns a Cartier Tank.

Thanks gents. I’m having fun reading up on Rolex a lot more although I’m all honestly I should probably close this browser at not look at watches again for a couple years because let’s face it... who has that kind of money?! Lol
